For the 3rd year in a row, and for the first time IN PERSON, Jo Knowles and I will be leading a week-long workshop on creating YA and MG comics at CCS in White River Junction, VT. EVEN on ZOOM this week left me feeling exhilarated, so I can’t wait to experience comics making together in the same room—being able to hop out to nearby cafes for breaks and lunch. As anxious as making plans to travel may feel at this point—I’m out of practice– the anticipation of this week dedicated to generating story ideas, workshopping projects, and gaining a community of peers eases these fears.
Wether you have an idea for a graphic novel, or a project already in progress, or even wonder about how to compose in panels, pages, and spreads—or know someone who does— consider spending this week at a spa for YA/MG comics! It’s also a chance to gain a short- term taste of life at CCS —the sound of trains rolling through the junction, and glorious immersion in making comics. Sign up here.
